It`s very informative.But please don`t talk about chief justice Chaudhry Iftikhar,who is the main cause of today`s Pakistan`s ill economy.In Musharaf time Pakistan was an emerging economy in the world.the GDP rose to 160 billions from 58 billions.He spent more money on education then any leader of Pakistan he brought Higher Education Commission ,we got more Phds in seven years of his time than last 55 years.Now that money is being spent on PPPs electoral vote bank called Benazir income fund instead on education.Our fisrt elected leader Bhutto brought Emergency in his time of democracy no body talks about that.Bhutto is the one who callopsed Pakistan`s Industreal ,banking,educational infrastructure by nationalising them.I wonder what Justice Chaudhry Iftikhar have given to Pakistan in last three years.Talking about siding U.S.A or war on terror, Musharraf made right decision on war on terror in 2001.this is 2011,China,Russia are more stronger than in 2001, still they abstained on Lebia in U.N.So we are still living in unipolar world. talking about Democracy in Pakistan ,is wild democracy where poor peasent and college lecturar,school teacher have same vote. the basic of democracy is in local body election where average person is served by neighbour hood ,police station level. Our feudal ruling class don`t believe in local body election and Pakistan`s media don`t care about it .If you like to get rid of curruption, bring police station under neighbourhood control instead of Islamabad control.

More Lies

It's unbelievable that at this time that you continue to promulgate such vitriolic lies. Al/Qaeda caused the bombing of the two towers and the Pentagon; they said so themselves. You have to ask yourself what did it really accomplish except the deaths of 100,000's of Muslims in Iraq, Afganistan, and Pakistan. Wouldn't it have been much better to strive for peace? Think of all of the trillions of dollars spent on this useless war. Wouldn't it have been better to have spent that money helping the people of Iraq, Afganistan, and Pakistan? Peace is the only answer. Working together is the only answer. I wish only the best for the people of Pakistan as they, not others, see fit.
